Forza 5 feels like a next generation game. It has created a new standard. It will be a difficult one to match - and it makes Sony's Drive Club look like child's play. It will highlight all the advantages of upgrading to a next generation console. Games like this will sell Xbox One consoles. The new era has begun.

As a showcase for the PlayStation 4's power, it's hard to really use Drive Club as as a highlight for why people might want to upgrade, either. The graphical precision that we see in other PlayStation 4 titles, from Infamous to Blast 'Em Bunnies, just doesn't exist here. Everything looks OK when zipping along at speed, but slowing down to admire the scenery reveals scenery that is a little messy... it's almost as though the developers through it incomprehensible that people would ever want to slow down when playing this game. The cars don't look quite as exciting as I would have hoped for, either, and in motion they were certainly less impressive than what we've seen in the promos.(downgrade confirmed)
